Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Muswell Hill Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed basement window would diminish the architectural coherence and horizontal rhythm of the Edwardian terrace and harm the significance of the conservation area, with no public benefits sufficient to outweigh this harm.
